Mae dinas ag iddi sylfeini, A duw yn Gynllynydd a Saer; Am hynny ni syfla ei meini, Ni threulia ei heol o aur: A mwy - y mae Duw yn ei chanol Yn byw gyda'i bobol Ei hun; A gwell na goleuni allanol Yw'r Oen sy'n goleuo pob un. Nid ofnwn am hyn pe symudai'r Mynyddoedd i ganl y môr, - Diogel a sicr yw'm hyder Yn ninas dragwyddol yr Iôr: Nid ofnwn pe ciliai'r goleuni O'r nefoedd a'r bydoedd uwch ben, Mae'r ddinas ag iddi sylfeini Yn aros heb nos uwch ei nen!E Keri Evans 1860-1941 Tôn [9898D]: Capel Newydd (W T Rees 1838-1904) |
There is a city with foundations to it, With God as Architect and Mason; Therefore its stones shall not shift, Nor its street of gold wear away: And more - God in in its midst Living with his people Himself; And better than external light Is the Lamb who is illuminating every one. We shall not fear, therefore, if the mountains Should move into the midst of the sea, - Safe and secure is my confidence In the eternal city of the Lord: We shall not fear if light should retreat From the heavens and the worlds overhead, The city with foundations to it is Remaining without night above its sky!tr. 2014 Richard B Gillion |
